  "summary": "The Jerusalem Post reports that the Houthis have claimed attacks on three Saudi oil facilities and two international airports, though Saudi authorities have not confirmed these strikes. RTE News reports that explosions were heard in Riyadh following warnings from Saudi civil defence regarding potential aerial threats in Riyadh, Kharj, and Najran. The Houthis have also previously launched strikes on the Riyadh airport, which resulted in a two-week closure.\n\nIn western Taiz, the Houthi-run health ministry stated that a Saudi airstrike killed at least 13 people on Thursday. According to the Hindustan Times - World News, Taiz Governor Nabil Shamsan reported that 271 people have been killed and 1,129 wounded since an offensive began earlier this month. Local officials and the Houthi group noted that a siege of the city by Houthi rebels has pushed residents into famine.\n\nRTE News reports that the Houthis also blamed Saudi strikes for deadly attacks on residential areas in western Yemen and claimed that 14 people were killed in strikes on a market and petrol station. The Houthis also targeted the airport in Aden. According to United Nations figures cited by RTE News, more than 1,600 people have been killed and over 275,000 displaced in Yemen since hostilities resumed.",
